John quee was his first born name until he discovered at 17 years old that he was chinese and decided to change his name for his country so he decided to named himself like that
+Chris Campa Yeah pretty much. If you gave these people a sack of gold they would complain about the weight of it. Someone should give them some cheese.... to go with that whine.
Because in Chinese Mythology, Ghost as often seen as demons, hence Demon Queller. Plus, there were some references in Zhong Kui using demons rather than ghost.
I find it weird that they only chose one of the three legndary warrirs and not Lui Bei. Sure Guan Yu is pretty awesome but he's hardly as famous as Lui Bei.
Alexander Salt How many of them would have? China and their ascension is like England and their knighting of people. Not uncommon for anyone or anything to ascend.
Johnny Jacobsen You're right. But ascension often only means you get to be a Xian (saint). Guan Yu went above and beyond when he was appointed God of War.
Johnny Jacobsen That's not your original point though, you were wondering why didn't put more legendary warriors in. Liu Bei never ascended, let alone be appointed a god. Sure there are gods a dozen, but Guan Yu is not some unknown god they pulled out of their ass. He's present in hundreds if not thousands of temples. Both the Hong Kong police force and mafia worship him like no other. I doubt more people worship the likes of Erlang Shen or Tuota Tianwang. Besides, many of the other Gods find their origin in Indian mythology and would not really qualify as Chinese Gods.
Will the Chinese king of Hell ever show up, what about the Devil in Christian lore. I know people are anxious to see Jesus but are worried his appearance would offend people but Christian lore is filled with all kinds of characters that would make excellent additions to Smite.
Sort of in the reveal, but did you see the fights? His Book of demons hit for 410 at level 15, and his ultimate did a total of 680. I do think his one should have a cripple, just to aid his somewhat low damage kit, or have more damage to his abilities. I think he will be used as a support mage if not changed, but I like him.
He means that the data for them is already in the game. Most of us already knew that Wu Kong is coming back soon, he was just talking about new gods further on.
Sam Martino I don't play him often, but when I do, he sucks and I watch others do it too and he is still too weak, the only useful thing is his ult and that's only for last hitting
Kirbylore Melon Man dude I just can't say hes bad I mean hes not very tough and his ult is good for last hitting got him to mastery 5 so its hard for me to say hes bad.
Kirbylore Melon i see him usually going solo tanky and he is quite good altough the soul gathering for the ult is somewhat tedious XD and getting a full bag during teamfights is hard
It's Chinese, so when it is what we call 'romanised' so that it is in the English alphabet, it naturally isn't used in the same manner. The same happens in Korean 'p' sounds will swap with 'b' sounds for example. It's just a matter of how things sound different to people who speak different languages. Same goes for onomatopoeias like animal noises, what we hear is different to what they hear. :) Hope that helps!
Sun Wukong will be the next yes, but Mercury and Thanatos just go add in the data of the game, this means before the game leaves the beta they both will be on the game.
If that was so, then the original gods when Closed Beta came out a year ago would mostly be in the top 20 or so. But the only "original" gods in the top 20 are Agni, Anubis, Ao, Guan, He Bo, Hades, Odin, Ra, Sobek, and Ymir. So 10/20 of the gods in the top 20 are the originals. Neither of us know the algorithm, but it's definitely not the total matches played in Smite history.
Have they given an estimate as to when the release will be? I personally like it being in a beta just because more content can be added and removed more quickly.
the problem is a lot of gods that could possible be added to the game share the same god roles such as god of war and such so technically giving them names like lawgiver and such adds more uniqueness to the character than adding like greek god of war, chinese god of war and egyptian god of war
I don't mean in the lane phase, I mean in actual fights. and his 3 is his only hard cc, for example, if you are fighting a nezha or loki or baka or something, they will cut through you like butter, but if you can launch em into the air then you are given an opportunity to nuke them down.
couldn't explain, it was too long, but basicly my point was that even tanks have high power contribution so that your first comment wasn't a good example
Compare Anhur and Thor? FriendlyFeederFish was talking about Tyr. TYR. And even so, he might not be more played then Thor because Thor has been out for almost an entire year. It is going to take quite a bit for Tyr to get over him.
if you look through the comments everyone is talking about new guan being weak, and then others say he's op. same with Zhong Kui. this is proof that both the gods are perfectly balanced :D GJ hirez :P
I know this doesn't seem like it would make sense but I want somewhat of a magical bruiser, and this guy doesn't seem like he has the damage output to be a mage
Did you even read his comment lol? I don't think you did. He said that a golden skin for the new god should be released with the god itself, not however many weeks later. He didn't say anything about them being free or changing their mechanics or anything of the sort.
No, he's not a new god. You could go check the patch notes on Smite's home page if you want to see the changes. You can also go to Smitegame on twitch and type !patchnotes in the chat.
ever seen Okami? the paint brush or the arts are a very powerful weapon. a picture can say a thousand words, a lamp can shine a light and u can beat ppl with it lol like a stick on fire
The true pronunciations are different from what we refer to them as. There are plenty of people, I've heard from a world studies class, that called Neith "NYE-th". Anhur as "ANN-hwa". Not much different, but Anubis as "an-YOU-biss". Ao Kuang as "yao-KWAN-guh". It's weird. Maybe they're a little different in that aspect.
There many mythologys and many gods that fit the same role, Ares is the god of war for greeks as Anhur is the god of war for egyptians wouldn't be nice to have 2 "Gods of war" and the names that hirez is giving for them are in the myths example:Ne zha is the Third lotus prince this title was give to him when he become a god it is in the myth.Hirez is doing a amazing job choosing names that not only fits the god but its corret.If you don't like just don't read,but you can't say they are incorret.
Well in his Ability reveal the abilitys seem pretty underpowered, but it's on purpose. The Enemy who get the abilitys recieved takes only little damage, but when you look at the fighting scenarios, he does some decent damage.
He is certainly not dead. Belive me, I have played He-bo for well over a year. His 3 is important, but you can escape with both ult and ur 2. It's not his main ability, it's not what puts out damage. He-bo is a poke class, u poke, then go line of sight, do it over and over. It's easy.
Those are the gods' titles though....Just like other gods being a god of something. It's all different for other pantheon's etc though, hence the differences eg Titles you seem to dislike rather than just God of (whatever).
AND HIS NAME IS ZHOHN KUINA!!!
LMAO this guy XD
John Quee
That's actually how you pronounced it. Zh becomes J in Chinese
John quee was his first born name until he discovered at 17 years old that he was chinese and decided to change his name for his country so he decided to named himself like that
Oto Suchomel that should be a skin
Jhon wick!
9/10 comments on every god reveal video ever = "ermahgerd you pronounced it wrong"
+Chris Campa Yeah pretty much. If you gave these people a sack of gold they would complain about the weight of it. Someone should give them some cheese.... to go with that whine.
+Jabs McTooFresh If they asked for whine tell them to talk to bacchus.
This is my favourite god in SMITE !! thank you for bringing Zhong Kui to the game
Why do they call him "the demon queller" when his actual title in mythology was way cooler?
"The King of Ghosts"
demon queller reference his shlong
@@anusarson6582 💀
Because in Chinese Mythology, Ghost as often seen as demons, hence Demon Queller. Plus, there were some references in Zhong Kui using demons rather than ghost.
He is also known as The Demon Hunter in Chinese Mythology and People
Go forth, demons!
Did you get nerfed,cause when I use his ult he doesn't heal allies.
yup nerfed alright no heal only immune to slows. his 2 heals less I believe demon bag gives less protections as well I think
so hes was more fun to play before the nerf nation attacked...
Future Venture nah he was op although he did get nerfed a little too hard imo
XD 0:50 Love the noogie he gives the evil soul.
So awesome, this game becomes better and better as time passes by ^^ Great job HiRez
looks like dong zhuo
1:24 boi he dabbin? 💯💯😂👌🔥🔥💣
+Momonosuke boi did it
Momonosuke dab on them haters
Oh god no, not the paintbrush,
*ANYTHING BUT THE PAINTBRUSH!*
Absolutely love the ending where he's just so pissed off he's beating all of the souls in his demon bag, and one fails at trying to escape
Zhong Kui,The Guy With The Magical Paintbrush
He does quite a lot of damage with his ultimate and third ability and has good sustain. He looks like a good god.
So basically Dong Zhou picked up a paint brush and a demon bag then?
Best animations ever :D
Hi Rez is really good at character design!
The chinese smite theme is amazing!
that ult loots amazing in team fights
Shouldn't it be pronounced "Zhong kuei" ?
Yep
+Khan She said John kuwi
+Khan It's pronounced ZHONG KUINA
+Khan New drinking game, take shot every time Zhong Kui is pronounced incorrectly.
It pronounces like Jong Khui
I don't play this game but it's nice seeing these mythical characters from childhood stories being featured.
Zhong for Splatoon DLC.
And his name was John Quee
I LOVE this music.
I LOVE THE PAINT BRUSH ITS SUCH A COOL ART :)
He is EPIC! :D
One man killing machine
Hail Zhong Kui!
I find it weird that they only chose one of the three legndary warrirs and not Lui Bei. Sure Guan Yu is pretty awesome but he's hardly as famous as Lui Bei.
Johnny Jacobsen Smite is about gods, my friend. Guan Yu is the only one who ascended to the Heavenly Palace to hold an office as the God of War.
Alexander Salt How many of them would have? China and their ascension is like England and their knighting of people. Not uncommon for anyone or anything to ascend.
Johnny Jacobsen You're right. But ascension often only means you get to be a Xian (saint). Guan Yu went above and beyond when he was appointed God of War.
Meh. There are gods a dozen and there may have been one before Guan yu. Wonder when they'll introduce Japanese gods.
Johnny Jacobsen That's not your original point though, you were wondering why didn't put more legendary warriors in. Liu Bei never ascended, let alone be appointed a god.
Sure there are gods a dozen, but Guan Yu is not some unknown god they pulled out of their ass. He's present in hundreds if not thousands of temples. Both the Hong Kong police force and mafia worship him like no other. I doubt more people worship the likes of Erlang Shen or Tuota Tianwang. Besides, many of the other Gods find their origin in Indian mythology and would not really qualify as Chinese Gods.
Realy, he is the most balanced god i have seen, awesome work hi-rez.
Will the Chinese king of Hell ever show up, what about the Devil in Christian lore.
I know people are anxious to see Jesus but are worried his appearance would offend people but Christian lore is filled with all kinds of characters that would make excellent additions to Smite.
I don't see why Christians are so sensitive about their religion lol. Don't think I've seen a religion as sensitive as them.
A1phaz0ne moslims are even more sensitive
aye i'm a christian and i agree, i need jesus in smite but
most people will probably get offended
marvbasbas68 Remember the fuss that indian goddess caused!

"You're Welcome!"
"Bye!"
"HAHAHAHA!"
lol that Zues
He means that the data for them is already in the game. Most of us already knew that Wu Kong is coming back soon, he was just talking about new gods further on.
Zhong Kui is SO under powered
Yea I use him a lot and he's not underpowered note use the god right.
Sam Martino I don't play him often, but when I do, he sucks and I watch others do it too and he is still too weak, the only useful thing is his ult and that's only for last hitting
Kirbylore Melon Man dude I just can't say hes bad I mean hes not very tough and his ult is good for last hitting got him to mastery 5 so its hard for me to say hes bad.
I just think he is underpowered compared to other gods
Kirbylore Melon i see him usually going solo tanky and he is quite good altough the soul gathering for the ult is somewhat tedious XD and getting a full bag during teamfights is hard

Give him a new skin
this comment is kinda "fresh" i want to say that now, with this old ult that was healing also he could be a ss
Sun Wukong will be the next yes, but Mercury and Thanatos just go add in the data of the game, this means before the game leaves the beta they both will be on the game.
john qui

i cringe HARD every time she pronounces it "zhAHng kwEE"
Remember when this came out god he is still
So op 7 years later.
lmfao subtitles xD
"Dealing damage as they leave the party"
Zhong Qui NEEDS more skins. I play him sooo often, but he only has two non recolor skins and it's depressing.
three years later and they've given him like one new skin :(
three years later and they've given him like one new skin :(
I never see anyone use this guy. Sucks
+Marvel fan Yep, poor guy :)) he is least played as the statistics say :(
But hes burst ia op
Saderich The Rich
Dunno, seen it on a ''top smite facts'' or sth :-?
he's my favorite mage I use him all the time
R3pherade 007 Yup I always go for attack speed when I use him
Fixed. Thanks!
OK no problem
Have they given an estimate as to when the release will be? I personally like it being in a beta just because more content can be added and removed more quickly.
the problem is a lot of gods that could possible be added to the game share the same god roles such as god of war and such so technically giving them names like lawgiver and such adds more uniqueness to the character than adding like greek god of war, chinese god of war and egyptian god of war
Totaly agree, was waiting for a new phys tank aswell, but wasnt expecting a guan remake :( AND especially for a ult remake.
This is gonna be a awesome patch :D
Guan Yu will be defacto first bruiser I really going to enjoy playing. I am more into mages but new Guan Yu is simply awesome.
It's the accurate pronunciation. There is a 'ng' sound at the end so it isn't quite John. :)
6:48 "Where you think you're going?!"
I came up with Vayu, the lord of wind. I would be happy to share it with you. I made up abilities, and i am currently trying to balance scaling.
I like this guy. He's both a good jungler and teamfighter.
I don't mean in the lane phase, I mean in actual fights. and his 3 is his only hard cc, for example, if you are fighting a nezha or loki or baka or something, they will cut through you like butter, but if you can launch em into the air then you are given an opportunity to nuke them down.
book of demons sounds like a demon hunter movie trying to figure out what demon is what with his book of demons lol
It was stated that Sun Wukong would come out a month from this update.
ymir's ult: 1200 base damage with 200% magical power contribution. That seems like a bit too much damage to be a tank.
Between John Kwee, Guan You, and Hee Bow... It's destroying my childhood... I couldn't even finish this video >.>
I would say we need more bruisers, yes there is now guan yu but that only makes 4 bruiser, (not counting bruiser-assassin and bruiser-tank).
he was a tank Support before, but everyone built him as a bruiser cuz he had good damage, a heal, and high def.
its a good change imo because he doesn't look like a tank, he's more of a bruiser or pseudo-tank.
I agree, Isn't Smite still in Beta?
Already a visual update and a ton of gods. Good game if you ask me.
couldn't explain, it was too long, but basicly my point was that even tanks have high power contribution so that your first comment wasn't a good example
Wasn't it obvious he wouldn't be in this patch? They didn't show the actual model in the chinese gods video so I doubt they've even finished him
The king of hell? oooh I hope he gets added aswell. Amazing job on this God. This game is a nerd dream come true I thank thee.
typo @ 2:59
thet -> they
Guys, the people on reddit just did the datamining of this patch, next gods Mercury(Hermes) and Thanatos. :3
Hey fellas, you forgot to edit the last sentence, where it says "Tyr, The Lawgiver" instead of Zhong Kui, the Demon Queller!
Compare Anhur and Thor? FriendlyFeederFish was talking about Tyr. TYR. And even so, he might not be more played then Thor because Thor has been out for almost an entire year. It is going to take quite a bit for Tyr to get over him.
if you look through the comments everyone is talking about new guan being weak, and then others say he's op. same with Zhong Kui.

Espaces allow you to get away from almost every ult in the game, tank or not.
No, he's not a new god. You could go check the patch notes on Smite's home page if you want to see the changes. You can also go to Smitegame on twitch and type !patchnotes in the chat.
ever seen Okami? the paint brush or the arts are a very powerful weapon. a picture can say a thousand words, a lamp can shine a light and u can beat ppl with it lol like a stick on fire
Guys, Guan Yu Is not a tank anymore, she said he's reborn as a physical melee bruiser
cuz they want to see if they will need it or not, plus creating the gols skin itsef probably takes awhile
The true pronunciations are different from what we refer to them as. There are plenty of people, I've heard from a world studies class, that called Neith "NYE-th". Anhur as "ANN-hwa". Not much different, but Anubis as "an-YOU-biss". Ao Kuang as "yao-KWAN-guh". It's weird. Maybe they're a little different in that aspect.
it keeps getting better!!
2:57 you misspelled "they".
i don't see his ult too powerfull, but he can take care of himself with that native lifesteal
There many mythologys and many gods that fit the same role, Ares is the god of war for greeks as Anhur is the god of war for egyptians wouldn't be nice to have 2 "Gods of war" and the names that hirez is giving for them are in the myths example:Ne zha is the Third lotus prince this title was give to him when he become a god it is in the myth.Hirez is doing a amazing job choosing names that not only fits the god but its corret.If you don't like just don't read,but you can't say they are incorret.
But the text in the left corner says THET
Antuzki never said that she SAID so, smarty
Well in his Ability reveal the abilitys seem pretty underpowered, but it's on purpose. The Enemy who get the abilitys recieved takes only little damage, but when you look at the fighting scenarios, he does some decent damage.
I think it was. This fits his lore better.
He is certainly not dead. Belive me, I have played He-bo for well over a year. His 3 is important, but you can escape with both ult and ur 2. It's not his main ability, it's not what puts out damage. He-bo is a poke class, u poke, then go line of sight, do it over and over. It's easy.
Wasn't it obvious he wasn't going to be in this patch? My guess, 2 weeks from now. There's a reason why they only showed the art only
He is in fact very strong, especially in team fights
AWESOME. GOLDEN FENRIR. Sweet, I can finally get it. But, tomorrow. That's when I'll get it.
He means that they should add gold skins for each new god as soon as they are added rather than waiting for however long
I am not talking about team fights either, I am talking about 1v1 skirmishes when you aren't with either team.
hi rez has a hobby of giving bruisers ridiculously high base damage on their abilities.
No because he is basically the same as before just his ult changed
and Looks alot different and better
Those are the gods' titles though....Just like other gods being a god of something. It's all different for other pantheon's etc though, hence the differences eg Titles you seem to dislike rather than just God of (whatever).
At least he's not also a "magical mage" I swear to god, Hi-Rez, I will never let that go... ever.
He shoots a flamethrower and magic chains though, which at least makes more sense to be magic than Guan's spear moves.
i'd like something like tribes: ascend's low graphics settings, because i cannot play smite anymore with the previous big patch-
and i'm still sitting here waiting for that golden hades skin
I think he means that he looks like a tank, his appearance is of a tank
But I was actually referring to how Zhong Kui also looks like Dong Zhuo from historic pictures.
So not pointless.
